Israel is committed to defeating the Hamas terror group everywhere, including in Judea and Samaria, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir charged during a security assessment in the territories on Thursday.
“When we talk about defeating Hamas, it means defeating Hamas everywhere, including here in Judea and Samaria. Continue the ongoing counterterrorism operations alongside robust defense,” Zamir added.
“Because while we are waging an intense war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, we are aware of the possibility that a larger and more intense front could open here in Judea and Samaria,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during a visit to the Border Police’s Mista’arvim undercover special-forces unit for the region. He also pointed out that a more intense front could open in Judea and Samaria amid the resumption of combat with Hamas in Gaza.
